RE: AND PLACE INSIDE A FARADAY CAGE.

Let's hope we don't get to all witness this debacle first hand. A single nuke at high altitude over Iowa would trash most electronics in the 48 contiguous states. (Damage was noted in Hawaii after a nuke test in the Pacific over 1000 miles away.) The doomsday types say the same thing can happen from a really bad solar storm, or at least enough transformers wiped out to take down the power grid for months with attendant total breakdown of society.
Fortunately, we only have to make it through to December 22, 2012 to prove the worst doom sayers wrong. :-)
